SN12 Scary Pumpkin Men 28mm new in Festive Range

A new addition to our Seasons of Celebration Range and much requested we present Scary Pumpkin Men!

Out of the patch and grown from their stalks before taking up weapons and hunting the very Humans who seek to use them for decoration.  The carving shall be the other way around this time!  Just look at that evil grin...

SN12 Scary Pumpkin Men:  This value pack contains three different metal 28mm scale miniatures armed with an axe, flail and pitchfork.  You can also find the miniatures as singles on the range page as SN12-01,SN12-02 and SN12-03.  Supplied unpainted and shown on 25mm square bases.

What is better than man sized plants intent on slaughter?  Snowmen armed with ray guns, muskets and bare hands of course!  Packs and a saver set of all twelve poses.

From the shores of Legendary Celtic Erin come some fellows who have gotten into the spirit of things.  Festive Pucci throwing snowballs and carry presents.

This is our last message before the Winter Mega Event 2024 begins. Full details will be presented on the 24th October of all the releases and the deals but for now we simply wish to state that the core which is 20% off all orders automatically (no code needed) is now active.  Free AS029 Courier Bot in every package shipped until month’s end too.

Skeletal Giant and Fallen Skeleton Giant new 28mm releases

A really big boned release!  In fact it is two releases and you get the second one free with the first which is awesome!  We present our brand new Skeletal Giant (80mm tall) and that same giant scattered fallen as terrain. Nominally for 28mm scale these codes will work in 15mm as well.  See our mighty Undead Legions Range for these and an array of Zombies, Skeletons, Wraiths, Undead Orcs and more.

The Summoner attempts to control a risen giant of bone!  Will he succeed?

VNT50 Giant Skeleton:  This metal miniature is made up of ten pieces which once assembled (with a small degree of pose choice) results in an 80mm height to top of the skull.  Armed with a huge two bladed axe this is an excellent addition to your risen army.  

This code comes supplied with the five resin pieces of VNT49 Fallen Giant Skeleton included for FREE. Shown on a 50mm square base which is not included.

VNT49 Fallen Giant Skeleton: Even the mightiest creation of the Necromancers can be destroyed.  This code contains five different resin pieces allowing you to scatter your giant skeleton on the field of battle as you please.  You can choose from the pack or parts of the pack in any quantity.

Have you seen our 28mm Skeletal Adventurers?  Even in death the dungeon does not mean the end of the quest for a Barbarian, Wizard, Dwarf and a Knight.

Thanks for your Time!

HOT154 Skeleton Giant released 15mm Fantasy Range

The mighty HOT 15mm Fantasy Range adds its one hundred and fiftieth fourth code and to give it its due it's an Undead release of some height.  A new Skeleton Giant with battleaxe; a behemoth to lead your horde of Skeletons, Zombies, Mummies and others in a game system of your choosing.

Under a blazing sun High Elves ready themselves to take on what was once flesh clothed and is now through necromancy given animation.  Will their cavalry and bows be a match for so much bleached bone?

HOT154 Skeleton Giant:  A single piece metal miniature of 40mm height to top of head.  Armed with a battleaxe and shown with Wraith Cavalry and Wraith Infantry for scale.  You can see all of the Undead in the range by refining the ‘filter by’ option on the website.

There are many Monsters in the HOT Range including Dragons but few are so terrifying to mortals as the HOT100 Ghoul Dragon which is 65mm tall and 95mm long.  We marked the event of the one hundredth code release with this hulk of rotting flesh and we do so again with a saving off the beast now.

This is our last 15mm scale release news before the massive Winter Mega Event commences 24th October.

Thanks for your Time!

Jes Goodwin Centaurs restored added to the 80s 28mm Barbarian Range

The good work of restoring the classic 1980’s high fantasy ranges of Asgard Miniatures proceeds at Alternative Armies with two more requested poses by Jes Goodwin. These followed up on his restored Barbarians Collection and fit right in with them. These lovely examples were painted by the talented Studio Maxi Costales who has done such sterling brush work on so many returned classics. In the woods below with our useful Handcart behind them.

Part of the Fantasy Monsters (FM) Range of which we have now restored about eighty percent of the one hundred poses each of these Centaurs is part horse and part man standing about 40mm tall.  Have a gander at the FM range for all manner of monsters and creatures.

Shown for scale DA18 High Elf Adventurer from the Dungeon Adventurers Range which is 28mm tall.  The new codes are FM99 Centaur with Bow and FM100v2 Centaur with Spear which follow up on FM98 Centaur with Sword.  These are our last restored releases for this month.

One of the first collections Alternative Armies returned to the world was the twelve pose strong Barbarians by Jes Goodwin.  These are offered as singles and two different sets of all twelve.  The first set gives a small saving and the second set gives you FL24-01 Midsummer Druidess for free included (one of the FL24 Winter and Summer Heroines set).

Thanks for your Time!

Adventurers Party 1993 by Andy Cooper remastered returned to website

We are delighted to present returned to our website the ten poses of the Adventuring Party sculpted in 1993 for Alternative Armies by Andy Cooper.  Along with remastering them we now have them in new pictures and they are as singles and a set of all ten.  See them along with Evil Adventurers, Halfling Walking Party, a Wizards Progress, Deadly Foes, Classic Fighters and more.  Great for any game system in 28mm scale.

FL22 Adventurers Party:  Made up of the original codes of FL13 and FL14 you can enter the dungeon or the wild woods with Fighters, Thieves, Cleric, Bard, Barbarian, Half Orc and Female Halfling.  Metal miniatures in 28mm scale in the 90’s style.

Save with the set of all ten or seek out the singles as codes FL22-01 to FL22-10 such as FL22-02 The Bard above.

Our ongoing process of offering all miniatures as value packs and singles is now just about complete on the Adventurers and Wizards Range which includes the remastered Winter Knight (FL10) on foot and also mounted on a superb armoured horse.

Right now we have not begun on the Dwarfish Host Range as it still has its original images with packs (choose singles within the packs) but we have refreshed the molds of the Dwarf Runic Golem.  This magic construct stands 65mm tall and is easy to put together.

Thanks for Reading!

October 2024 will see two more galloping classics restored in the Asgard FM Range and new bony releases in the HOT 15mm Fantasy Range and the Undead Legions Range on the bigger side too.  We have also recently remastered Andy Cooper’s Adventurers in our FL Range ten poses from the early 90’s; an article on that will happen.  There will be a new spooky release in the Seasons of Celebration Range too.  We will then take a wee breather as it were before we embark on what you have been waiting for..the massive Winter Mega Event 2024!  All by the end of October 2024.
